Hello,
When I installed the 2025 WPILib and tools for my Mac, the 2025 WPILib VSCode boots well, but is stuck in signing to Github. When I turn on settings sync, it resets to the settings of my personal VSCode (which is under the same Github account), and the WPILib extension disappears, as if I installed the VSCode normally, not from the WPILib installer.

I haven’t used settings sync, but as noted in the installation docs, there’s settings that are used for the FRC VS Code that wouldn’t be appropriate to sync back to a non-FRC VS Code, which is why there’s a separate installation.
Looking at the settings sync docs, I’d tend to guess it’s safe to sync the following
- Keyboard shortcuts
- User snippets
- User tasks
But not safe to sync:
- Settings
- UI State
- Extensions
- Profiles
Did you choose to merge or replace? I’m guessing the latter.
You’ll probably want to re-run the installer to recover.
It also looks like you could sign into different accounts one for non-FRC settings sync and one for FRC settings sync, if you wanted to sync between different computers.
That specific sync option seems to work, thank you very much!
